Siouan or Siouan–Catawban is a language family of North America that is located primarily in the Great Plains of North America with a few outlier languages in the east.
Authors who call the entire family Siouan distinguish the two branches as Western Siouan and Eastern Siouan or as Siouan-proper and Catawban. Others restrict the name "Siouan" to the western branch and use the name Siouan–Catawban for the entire family. Generally, however, the name "Siouan" is used without distinction.
Siouan languages can be grouped into the Western Siouan languages and Catawban languages. The Western Siouan languages can be divided into Missouri River languages (such as Crow and Hidatsa), Mandan, Mississippi River languages (such as Dakotan, Chiwere-Winnebago, and Dhegihan languages), and Ohio Valley Siouan branches. The Catawban languages consist only of Catawban and Woccon.
There is certain amount of comparative work in Siouan–Catawban languages. Wolff (1950–51) is among the first and more complete works on the subject. Wolff reconstructed the system of proto-Siouan, and this was modified by Matthews (1958). The latter's system is shown below:
Crow, known natively as Apsáalooke, is spoken by over 4,000 people, principally in the Crow Nation territory of southeastern Montana, USA. A Siouan language, it is a closely related to Hidatsa, and more distantly so to Lakota, Omaha, and several more. Like most North American language communities, Crow speakers were subject to government persecution in the 19th and 20th centuries, when the United States and Canada sought to eliminate non-European languages from the continent. Though the community continues to face significant challenges to language preservation today, a lively revivalist culture has emerged that includes educational institutions.

Then and Now: Archaeology, History and Preservation in the Mountain State Region "Evidence for Siouan-Speaking Groups in Southern West Virginia" Darla Spencer, Cultural Resource Analysts, Hurricane, West Virginia Since the first Europeans entered the Kanawha Valley over 300 years ago, historians, ethnologists, and archaeologists have grappled with the identities of the native people who had lived there. Because the villages were abandoned when the first settlers arrived in western Virginia, the ethnic/linguistic identities of the Native Americans that inhabited southern West Virginia were not evident. However, several lines of evidence point to the presence of Siouan speaking groups in the valley. Ms. Spencer will present historic, linguistic, and archaeological evidence for a Late Pre...

The Crow, called the Apsáalooke in their own Siouan language, or variants including Absaroka, are Native Americans, who in historical times lived in the Yellowstone River valley, which extends from present-day Wyoming, through Montana and into North Dakota, where it joins the Missouri River. Today, they are enrolled in the federally recognized Crow Tribe of Montana. Pressured by the Ojibwe and Cree peoples, who had earlier and better access to guns through the fur trade, they had migrated there from the Ohio Eastern Woodland area to settle south of Lake Winnipeg, Canada. From there, they were pushed to the west by the Cheyennes. Both the Crow and the Cheyennes were then pushed farther west by the Lakota, who took over the territory from the Black Hills of South Dakota to the Big Horn Mount...

Many languages are used, or historically have been used in the United States. The most commonly used language is English. There are also many languages indigenous to North America or to U.S. states or holdings in the Pacific region. Languages brought to the country by colonists or immigrants from Europe, Asia, or other parts of the world make up a large portion of the languages currently used; several languages, including creoles and sign languages, have also developed in the United States. Approximately 337 languages are spoken or signed by the population, of which 176 are indigenous to the area. Fifty-two languages formerly spoken in the country's territory are now extinct. The most common language in the United States is known as American English. English is the de facto national langua...
